| <!-- Place you name and comments below this line -->
| |
| #Nuhu, Sora is the best and always will be.{{User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig}}01:59, July 11, 2010 (UTC) | |
| #I have always faved Riku as a protagonist because of his storyline. But where Keyblade wielding is concerned, Sora was meant to be saved in the first ''Kingdom Hearts''. Also, no one else pulls off the silly side better than he does. Sora gets my vote. {{User:Troisnyxetienne/Signature}} 02:08, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| #Sora was a little grating early in the series, but he improved, and he took down nearly the entire Organization, plus Ansem and all the Disney and FF villains. Point, Sora.{{User:LapisScarab/Sig}}03:52, July 11, 2010 (UTC) | |
| #Sora's always upbeat and optimistic, and manages to make everyone around him smile. And let's not forget that he's the only person that's managed to survive being turned into a Heartless. Without Sora, Xehanort would have destroyed the Universe ten times over, don't you think? <br>{{User:Dan da Man36/Sig}} 11:07, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| #Duel welding vs. dark powers...however, it all comes down to what the series is all about: heart. And Sora's got it in spades. {{User:BebopKate/Sig}} 20:25, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| #Sora is always optimistic, makes everyone smile, doesn't give in, and doesn't break promises. He's much stronger than Riku in body, mind, heart, and light in general. Sora never let the darkness control him, but Riku let it easily. Plus Sora's destined for great things, and Riku's just there backing him up. {{User:FuronXXXX/Sig}} 10:44, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| #Sora for the win Riku's story only has the words Darkness in it and Sora pawns Riku every time. {{User:ZACH/Sig}}
| |
| # I'm voting for Sora here, I just never really liked Riku. {{User:Danjam/Sig}} 03:05, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

| |
| #Hell yeah! Sora, you are the weakest link, goodbye. {{AurorSig}}
| |
| #'''Embrace the Darkness.''' That's what my mom used to say... Just kidding. One ''must'' see that Riku is superior in intellect as well as strength. Plus, he was chosen to be a Keyblade master before Sora. {{The Inexistentsig}}

| #I don't hate Sora, but... it's ''Riku''. --{{User:JFHavoc/Sig}} 02:24, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

| The fight has changed ''a lot'' since its first release after ''Kingdom Hearts''. I'm actually not surprised. {{User:Troisnyxetienne/Signature}} 03:23, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :What do you mean by that, Trois? {{KKDSig|1}}
| |
| Given the storyline additions, and how Nomura worked hard to clear Riku's name from post-''Kingdom Hearts'', I'm actually not surprised at what's gonna be the outcome. I admit that my choice was a difficult one. {{User:Troisnyxetienne/Signature}} 03:30, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :Having all the KH game to analyse we indeed see that Riku got a lot of Good Boy Stars after the first Kingdom Hearts. And because of that Sora got a little to vanilla.{{User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig}}03:32, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| The key : always take the road less taken. ;-) They should also take time to see the beta trailer of KH1 before anything. {{User:Troisnyxetienne/Signature}} 03:34, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| ::I just like Riku 'cause I can relate to him a lot more than Sora. {{KKDSig|1}}
| |
| :::For me it is the other way around.{{User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig}}03:37, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| I saw the beta... Riku sure looked evil, more evil them Ansem Seeker of Darkness.{{User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig}}03:43, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :The beta is scary, eh ? But that's partly owing to the fact that all the renders were crude in the beta stage ; even Sora's and Kairi's. Donald and Goofy looked like they could fit into a DS more than a PS2. Also, it'd have been more natural if there were boxes in the road leading from the 2nd to the 3rd District, like in the beta. {{User:Troisnyxetienne/Signature}} 09:40, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| ::Scary is not enough to describe Kairi's Exorcist face. Those eyes were looking inside my soul! An interesting note: the slogan is "You are the one who will open the door." and through the whole game Sora only closes things. Ironic.{{User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig}}16:48, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :::How do you get to the beta? is there still some type of disc or downoad or what? {{User:Uther_sablemane}}
| |
| ::::It's the beta trailer. Not the beta version of the game.{{User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig}}20:15, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :The slogan still remains ; nevertheless, SoRiKa's faces were scary indeed. {{User:Troisnyxetienne/Signature}} 00:07, July 12, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| Uum, voters for Sora? Could you please give less... well, large explanations? They're huge, and very misleading... we don't need a paragraph as to why you want Sora to win. Don't the rules ban that anyway? --{{User:LegoAlchemist/Sig}} 00:03, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :After this batlle that rule shall be modified to the max of three line per vote.{{User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig}}00:07, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| ::How many lines you type isn't exactly easy to moderate. Just saying. Can't we just agree to give brief explanations, or none, and have your parograph in an edit summery? Saves space, if you ask me. --{{User:LegoAlchemist/Sig}} 00:09, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :::Indeed, controling the line isn't easy. A vote like Kate's is perfect. Explains the reason you voted in few words. We have the Graveyard especially for the comments.{{User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig}}00:14, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| I say 1 sentence. anything else gets removed by one of us. {{KKDSig|1}}
| |
| :Too harsh, KKD.{{User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig}}00:16, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| ::No, too frank. I agree. That, or two short ones. If people don't follow the rules, we have to do something. --{{User:LegoAlchemist/Sig}} 00:19, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| :no, we don't remove the vote. We take out whatever wasn't in the first sentence. {{KKDSig|1}}
